vit e talk on horse.com

couple of notes. This was sponsored by elevate from Kentucky performance This veterinarian does not like the synthetic. Synthetic is shown as DL. She said you often need 2,times or more than the natural., which just has the D. No doses were discussed which I found quite strange. Suggested yearly lab checks to check on vitamin D level. She prefers the oil for disease like PSSM but prefers naturals for maintenance. She said no studies were done on PPID in vitamin E. I use Walgreens Dl version that cost me 3 cents For 400 IU. Now company sells all natural version of D version that cost nine cents for the same amount. Thoughts on my DL and 3200 IU per day? testing?

First of all, when you buy a vitamin E product, all L or D,L, the potency in terms of IU is going to be the same. In other words, the D,L product will contain more mg than the L only product.

The next question is bioavailability - given different forms of vitamin E adjusted to have the same strength, is one absorbed better? Cutting to the bottom line, powdered E is not absorbed as well as the micellized (compounded with fat) forms that KER and others produce **but** there are no studies comparing E in oil to the other forms, except for one rat study I found that confirms the common sense thought that E in oil is well absorbed. I don't know if the more expensive products are better absorbed than E in oil but I can almost guarantee they're not 200% better.-- Eleanor in PA
